General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of bleeding from nose of your husband. So much bleeding that caused the vomiting of blood,.
Black-outs is definitely suggestive of, as you have mentioned the low blood sugar. I am sure this must have been taken care of.
Most important point is to find the reason of bleeding, which can be due to the following reasons:
Torn blood vessel.
Ulceration.
Hypertension causing blood vessel to rupture.
Can be a mass
or cancer.
I would advise you the following:
Get an opinion of an ENT Surgeon, an Endoscopy of the ENT to find the reason, CT scan of the Nose and Sinuses.
Once a proper cause is found, treatment can be planned well.
